I have a few venerable Kodaks (can I mention that brand here?) from the
late 40's and early 50's. Some of them, such as the old Pony 135 have a
strange twist-lock connector for the flash.

Is there any reason why I can't take a suitable connector and graft it onto
a standard pc cord? If so, does anyone have a suggestion for what shutter
speed I should use with a normal electronic flash.

[Yes, I do have a nice camera! A Pentax K1000. I'd just like to do this so
that I could check out the camera and as a bit of an exercise.]

Response by mail should be sufficient. I will summarize if there is
interest.
